If there’s one thing gamers don’t want for, it’s faith, and they’ve revealed a damn lot of it with theOUYA fundraiser. Theopen-source Android consolehas officially reached itsdeadline on Kickstarter, rising well above its goal with$8,596,475 in the bank.
63,416 people funded the system. Now we’ll find out whether this thing will be a reality, or a great big scam asBen Kucherastill insists. I really hope it’s the former … Ben will be insufferable (love you, Ben).
In any case, it’s pretty interesting to see just how much this community is willing to invest in a project it believes in. It’s only a matter of time before the Activisions and EAs of the world decide to try it too.
